EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Logan Ryan didn’t mince words when asked to judge his debut performance with the Titans.

“Personally? An ‘F,’” Ryan said after Tennessee’s 7-3 loss in the preseason opener on Saturday at MetLife Stadium. “I just felt like I put a lot of pressure on myself to come out here and have a good debut, being home and all that stuff. I made it probably a little bigger than I should have.”

Ryan, who signed a three-year, $30 million contract with the Titans this offseason after four years with the Patriots, had a debut to forget against a team whose top receiver was an undrafted rookie last season. Ryan was beaten each time he was targeted, giving up three catches for 77 yards and a combined passer rating of 118.8 to quarterbacks Josh McCown and Christian Hackenberg, according to Pro Football Focus.

Robby Anderson torched Ryan for a 53-yard gain on the Jets’ first possession, with Kevin Byard saving the touchdown with a tackle at the 2. Charone Peake caught a 4-yard touchdown pass from McCown, giving the Jets an early 7-0 lead.

“No. No, I didn’t expect that,” Titans coach Mike Mularkey said. “What we did on offense, I expected some of that, I did. Not to that extent. I was concerned about it going in just because first preseason games, look around the league, that’s what it looks like. And I’m trying to change it and be clean. But that was overly poor. So, no. I think we’ve got to do some things, we’ve got to look at the tape obviously. We’re in training camp, we’re still teaching these guys. We’ve got to look at just some of the things we’re doing coverage-wise and how far off we’re playing our corners on some of those things. Because they were just banging quick game on us.”

Tennessean writers Joe Rexrode and Jason Wolf break down the Titans 7-3 preseason loss to the Jets at MetLife Stadium.

The Titans might have gotten off the field without surrendering points, but Jurrell Casey had a sack wiped out by a questionable call for a late hit.

“I think we started off a bit slow,” Byard said. “We gave up the deep ball, and we had a couple penalties. But then I liked the way we came out on the next drive and finished it out. We forced them to punt, so it wasn’t the best start but it’s definitely something to work off of.”

Hackenberg was 11-of 15 for 70 yards and an 82.6 rating in the first half. He finished 17-of-24 for 119 yards and an 81.8 rating, before being replaced by Bryce Petty late in the third quarter.

Anderson had three catches for 71 yards at halftime.

“When you’re only playing one series or two and you have a bad, big play, you don’t get a chance to get it back,” Ryan said. “It hurts a little bit. I feel like I let down my teammates. But you can’t judge this position on one play. You’ve got to judge how you handle it. The good thing is I’ve got a good chance to handle it this week with Carolina and next week in the game.”
